What is Death

Something inside

I felt it die

not knowing, what it could be

I look inside

seeing what it is, I cry

I saw myself die

realizing I'm standing by

I look at myself and ask

What is death?

It's a life unfound, but found

It's a realization, but with disbelief

It's a reality, faced with changes

I realized, I faced my demons

I realized, I died in disbelief

I realized, I forced myself to change

So I died.

What am I now?

the Universe responds,

"Death of the old, births anew.

take your steps towards purpose

understand that life and death

hold hands. in your hands,

you hold both. let it go."
